Okay – time for a reboot. I have been pretty lousy at exercising and eating right lately. Part of it is that I haven’t had a goal, part is that we’ve been busy, and last week we went on a mini-vacation which meant lots of food and very little exercise. All excuses, I know, and I could still have easily fit in some walking or a few miles of running, but I didn’t. So it’s time to get back on a track.
Here’s the plan I’ve been using and I like it. I’m going to pick back up on week 11, hopefully. We’ll see how I feel this evening when I head out. At least it’s a nice day to run outside. Long runs are so hard on the treadmill.
Food is just as important as exercise, so I need to come up with a plan.
Tuesday – shrimp with peppers and spinach. Wednesday – Fall Festival at church, so hot dogs and nachos. Thurs – I’ll be on my own for dinner – I’m thinking a sweet potato, sausage, apple hash, one of my favorite dishes and so easy to make a single serving. Friday- the last football game, so there’s no point pretending I’m not going to have pizza and cheesy French fries. Saturday – we’re maybe having David’s folks over for dinner, not sure what I’ll serve yet. Sunday – leftovers day. Monday – burgers.
So, there’s my plan – we’ll see how well I do.

Yay for getting back to it after vacation. I keep trying to get faster on my reboot and I guess I did a little better this round. Planning meals makes a big difference for me. Without a plan, I tend to forget that vegetables exist and I like to eat them.
For me, the problem’s always getting enough protein. I like carbs a lot.
You can still get back on track 🙂
Well, I ended up carving pumpkins instead of going for a run on Tuesday, but today’s a new day, right?
